This probably belongs in a subpage of Shaostoul's user page. For example, [[User:Shaostoul/Guide]]. —[[User:0x517A5D|0x517A5D]] 01:21, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

:Well, once he gets the guide finished, it deserves it's own page just as much as [[Indecisive's_illustrated_fortress_mode_tutorial|any other guide]]. But until then, keeping it as a sub-page on his user-page might be for the best. Also, once it is finished, he should link it at the [[Modding_Guide]] page! There's definitely not enough stuff there. --[[User:SenorPwnage|Señor Pwnage]] 01:50, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

== Stuff that is 'unclear' (read:Dwarfy) ==

Mainly regarding the plants and trees workshops, if you don't manually set it, dwarves with the mining labour will produce the trees and plants
Seeds produced from haxed plants cannot be planted until you find the plant in your biome or barter for more seeds of that type (Tricky if you hax some sun berries or silver barbs)

and also the military training booth doesn't seem to work

edit: also saving & reloading messes up all the custom workshops

== Skills ==

Might want to add skills for Armoring (FORGE_WEAPON), Weaponsmithing (FORGE_WEAPON), Siege Engineer (SIEGECRAFT), and Siege Operator (SIEGEOPERATE)
 Edit: I see you have them under your reactions, not the skill list, so, disregard!

== Pump Method: Using the river's own flow against it! ==

I've actually found a fairly good way to dam a river using pumps. Unsure how to best edit it to show up, so, going to describe it and let someone else do the honors. Materials: a fair amount of building materials, 5 mechanisms, a few logs, and enough mats to make a pump for each tile the river is wide.
<blockquote>
<tt>
Downstream 
+777+ 
<nowiki>#####</nowiki> Walls all around to keep from overflow 
<nowiki>#777#</nowiki> 
<nowiki>#XXX# </nowiki> Pumps that pump South to North 
+XXX* Gear connected to lever 
+777| 
+77X| 
+77X* Waterwheel + gear (stable foundation as gear) 
+77X+ 
Upstream 
</tt>
</blockquote>

Be sure to construct floors underneath the pumps as well for them to count as stable foundations, as we will be using a lever on the gear next to them, would not want them to deconstruct.
